Wiseguy909 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Has anybody ever had any problems with their fuse block in there boat? I got into mine today and it is rusted up and looks horrible. If you have had to work on it where did get your replacement at? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountainman Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 iboats & boaters world are reliable sources. Usually, a marine/boat store will have them in stock. There are a variety of issues that can cause bad connections on a fuse block, with corrosion being a main reason. Ive seen grounding blocks break off, hot terminals corrode........its usually a good place to start trying to diagnose electrical issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOONlite Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 if it uses glass fuses, replace the block with the type that uses automotive spade fuses. glass fuses should never be used anywhere in a boat. watson's normally has the spade type in stock.

Wiseguy909 Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 OK, Ive got it fixed the main problem was the fuse block was corroded bad. My dad bought some stuff called CRC eletronic cleaner from Advanced Auto and it work wonders cleaning all of the corrosion off of every thing. I had the bilge pump go bad i changed it out and I think i'm sea worthy now. Thanks Andy for the advice . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
